How are the funds allocated?

The AHPDF distributes funding on a quarterly basis to each eligible profession based upon the size of its membership. Each application is assessed in accordance with the objectives of the fund. Applications are processed in the order in which they are received, but the date on which the application is received does not determine whether or not it is funded. In the event that a profession is oversubscribed for the quarter, eligible applications from that health professional group will be placed on hold until the end of the fiscal year (March 31) and may be reimbursed at that time if funding is available. The table below shows the dates of the fiscal quarters.
